Prerequisite Charms: Snake Form

Those who tread on serpents may not live to repeat their error. This Charm allows the martial artist to reflexively make a withering or decisive clash attack. A withering clash does not grant any Initiative to the martial artist, only serving to disrupt the momentum of her enemy with the blurring violence of her unexpected attack. A decisive clash can only be used to execute a gambit, potentially including a reflexive activation of Crippling Pressure- Point Strike to use one of its gambits.

If the martial artist knows Uncoiling Serpent Prana, she may activate it as though it were a Reflexive Charm to allow her to clash against a ranged enemy with Snake Strikes the Heel.

Terrestrial: A Dragon-Blood treats the clash attack granted by this Charm as her action for the round, and cannot make another. If she's already acted this round, then it counts as her action for her next turn.
